Lofted Bedroom-in-a-Box Design Hangs from Ceiling

One way to think of a bedroom is as that space where you can remove yourself from the rest of the world, relax and remain disconnected from everything outside while you recharge for the next day. How better to do that than by (literally) hanging out in a box (designed by ECDM) that is physically separated from the rest of your home?Complete with bed and television, this clever box bedroom is in many ways a central element within this place – defining and displacing space around it, making its presence known on all sides but also positively shaping circulation around it.However, while it exists in such a central location it is also completely concealed from the primary living area below – as secluded as one could ever need to be and completely safe inside on a bed inside of a steel box hanging from the ceiling.Moreover, when not in use as a sleeping space the lip of the bedroom provides comfortable-height informal bench seating for guests. Why just loft your bedwhen you can simply loft your entire bedroom?
